School districts in south King County offer students free supplies to help families save money FOX13
School District made the decision to offer a simple gesture that is adding up for its students. Both districts are providing grade-appropriate school supplies for every student at no charge. It’s one less expense families can check off their lists. For some, those free supplies add up to so much more.
The 2020 Census showed the median household income in Tukwila is $63,053. That’s more than $36,000 less than the King County average, at $99,158. Auburn is also below, with $76,410 per household. "We talk about equity in action, right? Everybody has access to the supplies that they need and we remove any barriers, any financial obstacles so the kids have what they need to be successful," said Blansfield.
"And inflation, and increased gas prices and all of these financial impacts that families are feeling," said Blansfield.
